[bravesfanMatt]

[bravesnumberone]

Why are we putting our only backup INF in the lineup??

I think you could move him to a position and have another bench guy be DH... maybe??

 

[msstate7]

TDA gonna rake tonight

 

[The Tariff King]

I would rather have Fried or Contreras DH over ARCIA

 

[bravesnumberone]

I don't think so, but I could be wrong.

 

[MadduxFanII]

If Contreras isn't going to DH against lefties....

 

[Mad Dog Murph]

Nope.

From the rule

If a player serving as the DH is later used on defense, he continues to bat in his same lineup spot. But for the rest of the game, his team cannot use a DH to bat in place of the pitcher. A team is also barred from using a DH for the rest of the game if the pitcher moves from the mound to another defensive position, a player pinch-hits for any other player and then becomes the pitcher, or the current pitcher pinch-hits or pinch-runs for the DH.

 

[Russ2dollas]

Has a DH ever batted 9th?

 

[Russ2dollas]

If Contreras isn't going to DH against lefties....

agree 100%

If Arcia is playing....why not put him in LF and DH Ozuna? Arcia played OF last year and is better than Ozuna.

Would just as soon NEVER see Ozuna play defense again - play Dickerson/Arcia/Contreras out there or put Heredia in CF, Duvall in RF, and slide Rosario back over to LF.

Ozuna couldn't throw ME out trying to score from 2B on a single - his attempt to cut Stephenson down last night was a joke, and that ball was hit AT HIM.

Sid Bream would have scored standing up and in the clubhouse spraying champagne by the time Ozuna's throw got home.

 

[Enscheff]

Arcia is the DH.

A single statement that demonstrates how thin the bench is.

 

[Enscheff]

Us: the DH will make it impossible for Snit to screw up the lineup.

Snit: hold my beer…Arcia batting 9th as the DH and no other backup IFer on the roster.

I dont understand how him or anyone else helping him thought this was a good idea. Wouldn't it be better to DH Ozuna and play Heredia in CF. Our defense would be much better and probably our offense as well.

 

[Hudson2]

Ozuna should never sniff the field.

 

[bravesfanMatt]

It is a shame that a few internet cowboys have literally come up with at least 3 lineups that are better than what Twit put out there tonight. I think we still win and Arcia will get 2 hits somehow.

That statement demonstrates how dumb our manager is.
